Actually, my background is in UI stuff, and I most enjoy writing software
that I actually end up getting to use, so I try to make things extra geeky
sometimes (where it doesn't get in the way of non-power users).  I think
it's important to always ask questions and listen to comments from the real
users.  I also like UI designs to evolve and go though little "intermediate
gratification" steps so that there's not too much put into place in one big
plop.  But I think it's good to have a general direction planned out for
coherency, as long as it's always adaptable, IMO.

As a developer of enduser apps for windows environments I appreciate seeing
elegant designs.  Too many times developers misuse the tools they have to
create kludgy, hard to use interfaces.  The web interface you have is such
that I am using it over a newsreader even from home when I have the option not
to.  I must say that I am most intrigued by the graphical thread device.  That
qualifies as the most interesting use of tables on a web page that I have yet
seen.  Keep up the good work.  It is most appreciated.
